It is not uncommon to find ourselves needing to answer such questions as:
- How much documentation should we write?
- How much of our code needs test coverage?
- How much work or how many projects can we work on at one time?
There are no stock answers to these questions. The right answer for you may be different than the right answer for the person next to you in the line for coffee in the morning. There is a parable from “The Way of Testivus” that explains this quite well. There are some of us that want someone to tell us what to do so we can just go do it and not have to figure it out. But, there are things that no one outside of your context can tell you – they can only give you pointers and guide you in the decision-making process.
